Less than half the price of transport by air, shipping your cargo by sea is the most cost effective way to move decent amounts
of cargo. We are happy to offer general advice for shipping your container.

There are a few things to keep in mind when preparing to ship goods overseas. Depending on the nature of the goods you are
transporting it is best practice to secure them from movement inside the container. This can be achieved by placing smaller
goods in boxes or crates which can then be shrink-wrapped for extra security. If your cargo is already on pallets you may
want to consider using a pallet wide container or a high cube container if you need an extra foot of height. Be sure to take
advantage of the lashing rings and bars on the inside rails and corner posts of the container to secure cargo such as a vehicle.

Delivery Options

When preparing for a container to be delivered it is important that there are no obstructions at the delivery site i.e.
height restrictions, overhanging branches, electrical wiring, uneven surfaces, etc. as any delays will result in additional
transport charges or an inability to offload the container/s. In addition, be sure to observe council regulations by
having the container placed away from public utilities, storm drains, septic tanks and set back space from the roadside.

You have the option of choosing between three types of trucks available in the metropolitan area. The type of transport
used to deliver your container will depend on a number of factors which we can discuss when purchasing/leasing your container.
Below is a basic overview of our truck types.

Tilt Tray

The most common method of delivery where the container is offloaded by tilting the tray of the truck and sliding it off the rear of the tray onto the ground. The
container is loaded onto the truck with the doors facing the way you wish to access them once the truck drives off.

Sideloader

This truck offloads and picks up containers to the side of the truck and is useful when delivering or collecting a container with heavy cargo.

Hiab

A Hiab can offload a shipping container from the side or at right angles. This type of transport would be used when delivering
a container into a particular position i.e. over a fence, or curb, or a difficult location.
